I found Tom Cruise to be a bit over the top and I couldn't get past the fact that it was Tom Cruise playing Lestat. But because I didn't really know Stuart Townsend, I could see him embody the character much more. I also liked his attempt at an accent, which I found way better than TC's more 'British' accent. I only wished they kept the relationship with David more front and center in the movie, since I found it sort of hot and endearing in the books. |

I still liked Tom Cruise when the first movie came out. I think he played the character so strongly that to me Townsend's was weak and flat by comparison. To be honest, I would have paid big bucks to have seen Rutger Hauer play the role as Rice originally intended. I think he would have wiped the floor with both TC and Townsend at that role.
(Then again, I am an unapologetic RH fan, and have been ever since BladeRunner.)

Angela - I had no idea that Rice wanted RH to play Lestat, oh he so would have hit that role out of the park. I've been a RH fan since he scared the crap out of me in The Hitcher and kind of developed a crush on him in Lady Hawk - I was a kid, don't judge. I've never actually seen Blade Runner I really need to watch that one of these days. Speaking of Vamps - holy crap Bill (English?) and Jason (Australian?) from TB have accents...damn that just makes them all kinds of sexy.

Here's one that just popped into my head. It's been a while since I saw it, so I'm sketchy on the details. But I remember watching it more than once, so I must have liked it.
The Night Flier is based on a story by Stephen King. It's about a tabloid reporter (played by Miguel Ferrer) who catches wind of a story about a vampire killer that's supposedly traveling across New England killing people wherever he goes. He thinks the vampire part is bull but will make a good story, so he hits the road to check it out. Only he soon starts to realize the killer really is a vampire.

Count me in as another who would have LOVED to see RH as Lestat. I can only imagine that performance. I would have paid so much money to see him in that role.
And you MUST see Blade Runner. It really is an amazing movie. I thought everyone in it was perfectly cast and it really is a well written script.

Blade and Blade 2: great action films, although the final action scenes aren't really edited that well. Still, better than the 3rd installment.
Interview with the Vampire: pretty much the basis for every Angel/Spike scene Joss ever came up with, and the only time you'll see two heartthrobs in their prime together. All the Underworld films: the ensuing war and medieval themes mixing with modern society (except the last one) is great to watch. |

Someone wrote a crossover fic in which Hannibal and Xander are brothers and I could totally buy it. Hannibal is what Xander might have been if he'd worked out a lot, learned to kick ass, and could use all the words not allowed on network television. Plus there are some nice fight scenes. I don't know, I just have fun with it.

I loved Blade Trinity just because of Hannibal King. Hot AND funny AND hot.
Also, THE best use of creative cursing I've ever come across. "Horse humping thundercunt" FTW \o/ |

Watched The Wisdom of Crocodiles last night on Starz. I think someone mentioned it in this thread. Very different so it kept my interest. I liked the odd take on the Jude Law character.

I liked the original Blade quite a bit but the 2nd wasn't very good and Trinity would be fantastic if you cut out everything but Hannibal King and Drake.
